As is well known, mealtime has a very important symbolic and relational value in the lives of each one of us,

adults and children, as well as in a community, be it infant-toddler center or preschool, where children have

the opportunity to experience this moment with other children.

They learn how to feed themselves, but also and above all their palate is educated in relation to the ways in

which food is presented at mealtimes, and they learn what mealtime means in their local culture.

Lunch therefore does not simply mean satisfying physiological needs but is a multisensory context that

involves taste, smell, sight, the sensations of hot and cold, and the consistency and volume of foods. This

context is also made up of light, smells, sounds and noises, where eating becomes an important moment

of interacting with others.

Meals can be an opportunity for self-sufficiency, self-control, learning, pleasure, and friendship. It is therefore

necessary to create an environment where the furnishings, the lights, the proximities and distances are able

to support intentional exchanges and encourage self-sufficiency in a setting that is warm and responsive,

where the cultural meaning and the cognitive and emotional potential of lunchtime are made explicit

Compact kitchen block with all

the elements and appliances necessary

Although it is unlikely that this kitchen

is sufficient for preparing full meals

in an average sized school,

it is perfect for those schools whose

meals are prepared by catering

services. It is also ideal for preparing

snacks and coffee, for reheating foods,

or for special occasions such as parties,

birthdays, or when guests visit. In

schools with a limited number

of children this compact kitchen

can easily meet all food preparation
